Golden Awe

Golden Awe - The truly inspirational setting of Kilchurn Castle on Loch Awe, lit by bands of golden dawn light reflected in the mirror like, still and peaceful, waters of the loch.

A quintessentially Scottish location, witnessing first light and dawn breaking at the loch is a genuinely captivating and enchanting experience; one cannot fail to be moved and to marvel in wonder at nature's raw beauty especially so when conditions are as beautiful as this.

An image from a memorable and special morning spent on Loch Awe; I was fortunate to have A magical dawn a variation of this image from the same special day, recently selected by Flickr as one of the Top 25 Photos on Flickr in 2018 From Around The World - many thanks to everyone for all your support and kind feedback on that image.

It is the desire to witness and experience remarkable conditions like this that drives my passion and inspiration to capture such special scenes, fleeting moments that last a lifetime in the memory and soul.
